Ok, so here's my latest purchase - Dan Wesson Razorback. This is the 10mm full-size 1911. Found it in my LGS at a price where I couldn't say no. Anyone else have one? It's my first 10mm so curious how folks like the round. I have another DW, this has the same build quality - like it's a single block of steel that somehow has moving parts.

I've added a few 1911's over the last month. The theme has been "I like shiny things"... Springfield Armory Stainless Sig Sauer Two-tone Kimber Eclipse Target II Smith & Wesson Another is still in jail, should have that by the end of the month. Let's just say it makes all of these look like imposters, and it's in 10mm

Interesting question - when you turn a gun in at a buyback, do you get a receipt?

PM replied. Got anything to trade?

Is this what you're looking for?

Once I pick it up I'll send you some pics.

Believe it or not, that's one of the ones I have waiting at the FFL. No mags with it though - cost me $50.

Well, they USED to make great revolvers. Anything with the Hillary hole doesn't count!

Hi all, I went with my FFL here in NH to look at a collection in MA he was asked to sell on consignment. Turns out the owner's son was taking them and selling them on the street, so the MA police seized them all and revoked the CWP for everyone in the house. It took a few years to get them returned, and then only on the condition they get sold - hence the call to my FFL. I just happened to be there when the call came in and asked to tag along. There were about 40 weapons in total - a combination of long guns and handguns. Half of the handguns were junk and the rest were pretty beat up, probably due to the seizure and the police basically throwing everything in a box without caring what happened to them. For $200 I figured this one was a decent buy. There were several others I also decide to buy, I'll post updates as I get them. Prices I think were cheap, but none have boxes or papers and most are pretty scratched up. The first is a S&W 457s. I don't know why, but I've come to like the S&W semi's every since I inherited a couple. They are built like tanks. Anyone else collect them?

Hi all, I'm not much of a long gun collector but I saw this and figured it would be a nice addition to my Beretta collection. This Beretta CX4 uses 9mm 92FS mags. Anyone else have one and can offer an opinion of them? I went with my FFL to look at a collection someone called him about. As it turns out, there were about 40 firearms that had been seized by the Massachusetts police and returned only on the condition they be sold. Turns out the owners son had been steeling them and selling them on the street, so the police took them all and revoked the CWP for everyone in the house. It still has the evidence tag on it. I bought several, mostly handguns, but this just looked cool. Is it worth the $300 I paid for it?

typical - make it someone else's problem.

Also consider looking at the Langdon Tactical version of the Beretta. I have that and the Wilson Combat - for the difference in price the Langdon is the better buy IMO.

That looks great! It would make a great hunting cabin or getaway. For a trailer base, is it worth looking at old travel trailers and stripping them? I usually see a few that people are looking to give away just to get rid of them...

Odd, that list used to be easily available. What possible benefit can there be to hiding it, other than to slow the process down. Plus, it never changes, so once you have it it's the same every time.

Damn!

Very nice!

Maks, Yes, it does remind me of the '90's S&W now that you mention it - just in 3/4 scale. There are so many things outdated on it's design compared to today's standards, but back when it was made it was probably pretty cool. There wasn't much available in the semi-auto subcompact concealed carry back then, and there is a lot of info on the interwebs about how this was handgun of the year in 1991 from Guns & Ammo. I need to get it to the range to see how it shoots. My bet is recoil is fairly tame considering the low bore axis and heavy weight. Maybe I'll put it into the carry rotation and see how it goes. With the weight I'll certainly know it's there. Dean

Hi all, Was in the LGS yesterday and saw this in the case. Studied it for a bit at the counter then decided I should rescue it and take it home. Star Firestar M43 version (so 9mm) and frankly it looks like a 1911 compact and a CZ got together and produced this offspring. The frame and controls are very 1911-like and the slide and rails are all CZ. I think this one is from 1993, so near the end of production. The finish is in nice shape, no peeling or major scratches. A few handling marks from being carried, but honest wear. Came with a second mag and a IWB holster, the box, papers and cleaning tools. The pic doesn't show the scale, it's about the same size as a Kimber micro-9 but wider, and a lot heavier. I was starting to get away from collecting guns I wouldn't shoot much, but I guess not. It was too cheap to pass up. Anyone have any experience with these? Is there a fan base for these things? Not really valuable, but easily collectible for a couple hundred $$$.

I agree this guy is screwed, but his case should be advertised everywhere. Everything he had was legal in his state of residence, it was only because it was NJ that he's now jammed up. Yes, I get the whole "better know the laws where you're going", but really? A 69 year old guy facing NJ's version of justice? Force Murphy/Grewel to justify the shitstorm this guy is about to face. Only thing "better" would be a 69-year old woman with a PA CCW and her handgun in her purse. And notice the probable cause for the stop - not signalling a lane change? Cop had nothing better to do? Unless there is something we don't know, like the guy was being watched for some reason, but nothing in the article mentions him being a threat.

ooooo. aaaaaaa..

All, I'm not much of a CZ fan. Nice guns, I've had several and still have a Jericho 941 / Baby Eagle, which is built on the CZ platform. This one, however, made me do a double-take when I saw it. I've always been partial to shiny things. This one screamed "take me home!", so I did. Advertised as a Stainless Glossy finish as opposed to the Matte Stainless I guess.

Useless fact: The weinermobile drivers are called "Hot Doggers". There is an actual job title and job description for them.

When the best place around is Costco you know the local stuff is the dregs. I miss good NJ pizza...

When I went there I would park in the northern remote lot as close to the exit as I could. Leave the lot and get right onto the Parkway north. A bit of a walk to get to the concert from the lot but made it easy to get out.

I use one of the larger ones as a range box. I fit 4 handguns, mags, eyes & ears into the case. Only downside I found is the foam is a bit cheap. Eventually I'll need to find some replacement that holds up better. I also have a smaller one I bought when I was traveling a lot for work when I thought I might take one with me, but I never tried it with TSA. No reason it wouldn't work that I can see though. No experience with how weather tight it is.
